What is Concrete Washout?

After concrete is poured at a construction site, the chutes of ready mixed concrete trucks, hoppers of concrete pump trucks and concrete tools must be washed out to remove the remaining concrete before it hardens. The remaining slurry, wash water, and hardened concrete residue are collectively known as concrete washout.

Construction Waste is any cement material leftover on a job site; this includes Masonry Block, Washout from Concrete Trucks and Concrete Pump Trucks. These cementitious materials (having the properties of cement) wash-water and solids also come from using such construction materials as mortar, plaster, stucco, and grout require special handling to properly dispose of them.

Proven Environmental Benefits of Concrete Washout Recycling

Diligent’s commitment to concrete washout recycling doesn’t just help contractors maintain compliance, it also delivers measurable environmental benefits.

A study conducted by the University of Florida’s Sustainable Materials Management Research Laboratory evaluated Diligent’s concrete washout recycling program and found significant environmental savings from recycling collected washout materials instead of sending them to landfills. Since 2017, Diligent has recycled tens of thousands of tons of concrete washout material, helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions, conserve energy, and divert waste from landfills.

The University of Florida study found that recycling concrete washout can help:

• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with producing virgin construction materials
• Conserve energy through the reuse of aggregate materials
• Divert concrete waste from landfills
• Support local recycling initiatives and sustainability goals
• Reduce demand for virgin aggregate mining and processing operations

By choosing Diligent, contractors gain a reliable washout solution while supporting environmentally responsible construction practices.

Learn How Concrete Washout Recycling Supports Compliance & Sustainability

Best Management Practice Objectives

The best management practice objectives for concrete washout to (a) collect and retain all the the concrete washout water and solids in leak proof containers, so that caustic material does not reach the soil surface and then migrate to surface waters or in the ground water, and (b) recycle 100 percent of the collected concrete washout water and solids. Another objective is to support the diversion of recyclable materials from landfills.

How Diligent’s Concrete Washout Process Works

Diligent makes concrete washout management simple, efficient, and compliant.

1. A washout pan or roll-off container is delivered directly to your construction site.
2. Ready-mix trucks, concrete pumps, hoppers, and equipment safely discharge washout material into the designated container.
3. Containers are monitored and serviced as needed throughout the project.
4. Collected washout materials are professionally removed and transported for recycling.
5. Recycled concrete washout is processed for beneficial reuse, helping reduce landfill disposal and support sustainable construction practices.

This streamlined process helps contractors maintain compliance while minimizing job site disruptions.

Why Water-Tight Concrete Washout Containers Matter

Concrete washout contains cement fines, aggregate particles, and highly alkaline wash water that can negatively impact soil, groundwater, storm drains, and nearby waterways if not properly contained. According to the University of Florida report, concrete washout slurry can have a pH of approximately 12 and may contain contaminants that require proper handling and disposal.

Diligent’s patented water-tight containers are specifically designed to:

• Prevent leaks and uncontrolled runoff
• Protect nearby stormwater systems and waterways
• Support SWPPP compliance requirements
• Simplify inspection and site management
• Provide a cleaner, safer work environment

Unlike temporary washout pits, tarps, or improvised containment systems, Diligent containers offer a dependable solution designed for active construction sites throughout Florida.

Best Management Practices for Concrete Washout

Industry best practices recommend collecting concrete washout in secure, leak-proof containment systems and recycling materials whenever possible. The University of Florida identified collection in specifically fabricated, water-tight containers followed by recycling as one of the most effective approaches for managing concrete washout.

Diligent’s washout system helps contractors follow recognized best management practices by:

• Providing water-tight washout containment
• Supporting EPA and stormwater compliance efforts
• Reducing the risk of environmental violations
• Facilitating the recycling of collected materials
• Eliminating the need for temporary containment methods such as hay bales or plastic-lined pits

For contractors focused on compliance, safety, and environmental responsibility, Diligent provides a practical solution that aligns with industry-recommended washout management practices.
